Theoretical and applied research in Non- and Semi-Parametric Econometrics has been a primary interest of him over the last twenty years, as is evidenced by my publications in the area. Since the beginning of 2002, he has been leading and coordinating a large group of Australian and international researchers working on Non- and Semi-Parametric Econometrics: Theory and Practice in Bayesian Estimation, Nonlinear and Nonstationary Time Series and Panel Data Econometrics. The group currently works both actively and productively towards providing solutions to such problems that are at the frontiers of Bayesian estimation as well as nonlinear and non- stationary time series and panel data econometrics. He has published widely in leading international journals in economics, econometrics, finance and statistics.
